Boccieri Heavy DF Series Putters

A heavyweight to knock out three-putts
Heavy DF (for "deep face")
putters stand out from the
crowd due to a super-heavy
head that weighs 60 percent
more than anything else out
there (the total club weight is
twice that of any competitor).
The idea is to promote a "big
muscle" stroke, so the small
ones in your hands and wrists
won't flip it or yip it. Models
such as the C2-DF blade
(left) or the D3-DF
mallet (right) measure 1 1/4
inches from sole to topline.
Most other heads, including
earlier ones from Heavy, are
1 inch tall. Doesn't sound like
much difference, but the taller
face raises the club's center of
gravity (CG). In this case, the CG
is directly in line with the center
point of the ball, which sits .84
inches above the ground. The
skinny for you should be better
feel and improved roll.

Previous Heavy putters had a
steel head, aluminum hosel and
movable weights. The DF Series
comes in all-steel, with no
movable weights, so it costs less
to build  and to purchase.

The head's center of
gravity is directly in
line with the center
alignment mark on
top. By contrast,
many putters have
the CG toward the
heel side.

The D3-DF mallet has four rails
along the sole rather than a big
flange. The leading edge sits off
the ground, to reduce scuffing.

The face-balanced putter has a
milled horizontal line face pattern
to give it a slimmer look.
